There is an option to control your system remotely from a laptop/ PC via the RS-232 connection (the
“PC PORT”) on the front panel of the first HELIX DN9340E/DN9344E unit. It is possible to connect to
other HELIX DN9340E/DN9344E units from the rear Ethernet port(s) when using a serial connection,
but note that this will be slower than using Ethernet.
